I added more before adding the cream cheese (I didn&#39;t do the blender step). Mine thickened fine, I just had to give it some time. I wonder if my stock evaporated from being on too high of a heat? Or because I added mushrooms? I probably could have cut down my simmering time a little, but I was afraid my meatballs wouldn&#39;t be cooked thoroughly. And I used ground turkey and they tasted fine. For this recipe I will probably use ground beef next time, but turkey works in a pinch.

I also have thickened the sauce with a bit of flour and water and cook until thick- otherwise it is too thin. I made it with mashed potatoes the second time and LOVED the combo!
